I wonder what class size those figures are based.

If one is diving so close to the limits that +/- 1% will make a difference then the error has already been made.

At the school my other half teaches at, they are crowbarring another kid into her classroom, taking the head count up to 31 (or 32 - somewhere like this). A school cannot legally refuse to take a child with a statement, even if they are at (or above) capacity. So, 10% of her class is kids with special needs - some with permanent minders, which adds to the body mass in the classroom.
I doubt these extra spaces will be used to relieve the pressure in schools in this kind of situation.
